West Plano's upscale neighborhoods around Willow Bend and the golf clubs are built on Blackland Prairie with deep black clay soil, mature oaks, and estate-sized backyards that demand more than a struggling lawn. When your St. Augustine or bermuda grass dies under the Texas heat, turns to dust in summer, or your dog's run becomes a mud pit, artificial turf is the honest solution we have been installing since 2013.
Homeowners in the 75093 ZIP code call Plano Turf Installation because we know West Plano's yard challenges: the clay drainage, the intense sun on south-facing slopes, HOA rules on front-yard color and pile height, and the need to get a backyard ready for a pool, a putting green, or an event. We write down what we install, name the turf product, face weight, pile height, infill type and base depth, and we do not cut corners on the base or leave you with seams that lift in the heat.
Artificial Grass Installation in West Plano (75093)
West Plano's brick-and-stone two-stories sit on rolling terrain with steep roofs and expansive backyards framed by cedar board-on-board fences. The black clay soil drains slowly and compacts hard. Summer temperatures push 100 degrees, and afternoon sun on a south-facing yard can stress any lawn. Dogs and kids wear grass down fast, and a pool surround or patio needs a surface that stays clean and does not mud up after rain.
Our team handles the specific conditions here. We grade and slope for drainage, lay a compacted stone base to code, select turf products rated for Texas heat and UV, and finish with infill that holds up to pet traffic and pool chlorine. Front-yard work in West Plano often requires HOA architectural review, and we help you prepare those submittals and coordinate with your neighborhood rules. We have installed putting greens and pool surrounds on estate properties in Willow Bend, replaced dead lawns in Deerfield, and retrofitted dog runs in neighborhoods across the Plano area since 2013. We are fully insured with general liability and workers' compensation coverage.

How a Job Works in West Plano
We start with a free on-site assessment. You tell us what the yard needs, how your family uses it, and what problems you want solved. We measure the area, check the soil and drainage, look at sun and shade patterns, and if there is an old lawn or failing turf in place, we evaluate removal and base prep. For front-yard work, we review your HOA rules with you and explain what we can and cannot do without architectural approval.
The work itself begins with removal of old turf, sod, or dead grass if needed. We grade the area for proper drainage, remove debris and rocks, and lay a compacted stone base (typically 3 to 4 inches of crushed limestone and recycled asphalt) that keeps the turf stable and drains water away from the house. We request Texas 811 utility locates before any excavation so we do not cut into irrigation lines or low-voltage lighting. We then roll out the turf, cut it to fit tight to fences and hardscape, seam it properly so edges do not lift, and apply the infill (typically silica sand and rubber crumb or an alternative) to hold the pile upright and keep the surface cool. Access to your yard matters, especially on tight side yards in West Plano, so we plan how turf rolls and base material get in and out.
We finish with a thorough cleanup, remove all scraps and debris, and walk the finished yard with you to confirm it meets the spec and your expectations. We leave the property clean and ready to use.
Artificial grass installation in West Plano starts at $8 per square foot for a basic residential yard and ranges up to $18 per square foot for specialty surfaces like artificial grass walls. Pet turf and dog runs run $10 per square foot, putting greens $15 per square foot, and pool surrounds $9 per square foot. A typical 400 square foot backyard retrofit (say, a corner dog run or patio area) falls in the $3,200 to $4,000 range before removal. A full 1,000 square foot backyard conversion runs $8,000 to $10,000 or more, depending on what is already there, how much base prep and drainage work is needed, and the turf product you choose. Removal of old turf or sod costs from $2 per square foot. If you have a dead lawn that needs to come out and a new base built, or a yard with drainage problems that require grading, those are real costs we factor in. The price depends on the area you want covered, the turf product and face weight, the infill type, the base depth and compaction, and whether we are removing and replacing what is there now. Call us at (469) 874-1078 for a free on-site estimate. We measure in person, walk the yard with you, and give you a realistic price before we start.
